Rohan Smith says Zak Hardaker's future at Leeds beyond this season will be discussed 'when the time is right'. Hardaker has impressed since returning to Headingley on an initial short-term deal after being released by Wigan Warriors.
That deal runs until the end of the current Super League season, and Hardaker's early form back in a Leeds shirt, particularly his display in last week's victory at Warrington Wolves, has led many to question whether he could extend his second stint at the club for at least another season.
Smith was asked the question on Wednesday in his pre-match media briefing ahead of Friday's trip to Huddersfield. However, he remained coy on the subject.
